Remembrance Sunday

The Parish Council, in partnership with the Rivers Team, arranges a service in the Community Hall commencing at 10.00 am. At approximately 10.45 am the congregation walks to St George’s Churchyard to meet up with other local residents ready for the act of remembrance at 11.00 am.

Wreaths and crosses are laid by schoolchildren and representatives of community groups before a two minute silence is observed in memory of those who sacrificed their lives for the benefit of all future generations.

At the conclusion of the remembrance all those attending are invited to walk to the Community Hall for light refreshments served by the Friends of St George’s Churchyard.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
we will remember them.
